The Eden project provides a way to
create a global interactive model capable of identifying, analyzing, and sharing cultural information relative to the
resolution of critical issues. It is singularly unique in that it is
completely non-confrontational, while accommodating all ideological positions equally and
without bias.
Intended to function in direct conjunction with governments and nongovernmental agencies alike, this project provides the world
with the first
realistic means to resolve those threats that exceed the
boundaries and resources of pre-existing authority. In addition, it does
this without recourse to the destabilizing element of required change.

TheEden projectconstitutes the optimal way to raise
human awareness relative to critical issues and their resolution. It
does this by incorporating a tangible incentive into its methodology that can
ensure public participation, across the international arena, in the identification of those questions
whose answers can best diminish global threats. It is also
designed to
achieve this objective without any dependence upon special interests.
As such, it stands alone in the World with regard to both its approach to
problem solving and the scope of human involvement that it is capable of
enlisting. After 17 years of continuous refinement, this project is now
endorsed by principals from 28 International
organizations. A cross section of qualified opinion, along with
institutional profiles, can be found on the "Endorsements"
page.
The "Cause for Urgency"
material
that accompanies this proposal emphasizes need.The need for a radical change to the premises governing conflict
resolution became apparent when this discipline lost control of its defining elements; and thereby,
its ability to neutralize situational circumstance. This, in turn,
allowed a number of problems to escalate to the point where they currently
threaten all life on earth.
As things now stand, without a mutually acceptable moral/ethical imperative capable of
demanding sufficient self control from conflicting interests, it is doubtful that mankind can
survive itself.

The root cause of our current dilemma is a growing inability to comprehend
and thus control the ever increasing amount of information that is invading
nearly every aspect of our lives. In the process, it is creating a confusion
that leads to division and its attendant paralysis. This is occurring, because we
have lost...

touch with the questions
that prompted and thereby controlled our "content generating process" --
thus leaving it free
to compound information tangentially without constraint. Thus, it was
inevitable that we would eventually be confronted with viabilities that
outstripped our capability to understand how to control them. And,
that is exactly where we now find ourselves.Since the "self" inherently
relies upon its relationship between questions and the answers they provoke
to maintain a continuity of identity,
the 'self' now finds itself hopelessly adrift in this complexity without the
ability to understand its underlying meaning and/or purpose. This disconnect leads to a breakdown in function and
then order.The Eden project was specifically designed to counteract this problem, by
reestablishing
the linkage between questions and the answers they provoke. This
association is absolutely essential for content to remain relative to
the self -- a component necessary for the self's orderly and homogeneous
assimilation into the world of humankind.By providing a means to return control to the questioning
process, and the inherent relevance it affords, the Eden project
can serve as a foundation by which to stabilize the self, and reconstitute
"hope" in all who have lost faith in their ability to understand how to make
a meaningful difference in the World. This is extremely important -- for
without the stability that 'hope' affords, it is inevitable that order will
breakdown; violence will increase; and, weapons of mass destruction will
eventually enter into the human equation. Preventing technology from
imposing itself upon the human equation is something that must
be prevented at all costs.
